INTRALOT ADOPTS COBIT® 5 TO MAXIMISE INNOVATION AND VALUE

INTRALOT announces its successful implementation of COBIT® 5, the 2012 edition of ISACA’s globally accepted business framework for the governance and management of enterprise IT.

As a world-leading gaming provider, INTRALOT continually strives for innovative products with optimal customer and stakeholder value. INTRALOT’s product development follows a structural approach that combines information from different sources, including market research, customer requirements, advances in technology and the gaming sector, compliance and security requirements as well as collaborative initiatives. To this effect, COBIT® 5 delivers value from enterprise information systems by linking business goals to IT goals and bridging the gap between control requirements, business risks and technical issues.

The main principles of COBIT® 5, which aim to generate value, address the governance and management of information and related technology from an enterprise end-to-end perspective, apply a single integrated framework relevant with other standards and frameworks, provide a holistic approach of governance and management over enterprise IT and separate governance from management, all enable INTRALOT to achieve its strategic goals and maximize business and customer benefits.

Commenting on INTRALOT’s decision to implement the evolutionary COBIT® 5 version, Mr. Konstantinos Farris, INTRALOT’s General Technical Director of Systems, stated: “In today’s challenging and dynamic IT environment, INTRALOT recognizes the vital role of applying the most up-to-date, comprehensive business framework which optimizes information and technology to further facilitate innovation and create utmost enterprise value.”
